WOW - this is fantastic!! I was just scanning this "sports and recreation" section, which I don't ususally look at and here YOU are again! This is a superb shot! Way to go David!!
Hi, Debbie. Thanks for the comments! Actually it was my first time out "panning". I set my camera to 1/30sec. at f/18 I believe. It's been a while, so I'll have to check the EXIF data to be sure. I mounted it to a tripod and panned with the riders. Honestly I took many, many shots that day and only had a few turn out the way I had hoped.
I hope things go well for you, you have great work. I shall go vote for them now! Blessings!
well you did a great job on your action shots. i have been trying to learn more about this and i am so impressed when someone nails it like you did here!

I really enjoy this photo. The panning is great and I love the blurred effect in the background. I don't think I could get a shot like this.
